Keroncong

Keroncong merupakan nama dari instrumen musik sejenis ukulele dan juga sebagai nama dari jenis musik khas Indonesia yang menggunakan instrumen musik keroncong, flute, dan seorang penyanyi wanita.
Akar keroncong berasal dari sejenis musik Portugis yang dikenal sebagai fado yang diperkenalkan oleh para pelaut dan budak kapal niaga bangsa itu sejak abad ke-16 ke Nusantara. Dari daratan India (Goa) masuklah musik ini pertama kali di Malaka dan kemudian dimainkan oleh para budak dari Maluku. Melemahnya pengaruh Portugis pada abad ke-17 di Nusantara tidak dengan serta-merta berarti hilang pula musik ini. Bentuk awal musik ini disebut moresco, yang diiringi oleh alat musik dawai. Musik keroncong yang berasal dari Tugu disebut keroncong Tugu. Dalam perkembangannya, masuk sejumlah unsur tradisional Nusantara, seperti penggunaan seruling serta beberapa komponen gamelan. Pada sekitar abad ke-19 bentuk musik campuran ini sudah populer di banyak tempat di Nusantara, bahkan hingga ke Semenanjung Malaya[1]. Masa keemasan ini berlanjut hingga sekitar tahun 1960-an, dan kemudian meredup akibat masuknya gelombang musik populer (musik rock yang berkembang sejak 1950, dan berjayanya musik Beatle dan sejenisnya sejak tahun 1961 hingga sekarang). Meskipun demikian, musik keroncong masih tetap dimainkan dan dinikmati oleh berbagai lapisan masyarakat di Indonesia dan Malaysia hingga sekarang.
h musik dawai, seperti biola, ukulele, serta selo. Perkusi juga kadang-kadang dipakai. Set orkes semacam ini masih dipakai oleh keroncong Tugu, bentuk keroncong yang masih dimainkan oleh komunitas keturunan budak Portugis dari Ambon yang tinggal di Kampung Tugu, Jakarta Utara, yang kemudian berkembang ke arah selatan di Kemayoran dan Gambir oleh orang Betawi berbaur dengan musik Tanjidor (tahun 1880-1920). Tahun 1920-1960 pusat perkembangan pindah ke Solo, dan beradaptasi dengan irama yang lebih lambat sesuai sifat orang Jawa.
Pem-"pribumi"-an keroncong menjadikannya seni campuran, dengan alat-alat musik seperti
Saat ini, alat musik yang dipakai dalam orkes keroncong mencakup
  • ukulele cuk, berdawai 3 (nilon), urutan nadanya adalah G, B dan E; sebagai alat musik utama yang menyuarakan crong - crong sehingga disebut keroncong (ditemukan tahun 1879 di Hawai, dan merupakan awal tonggak mulainya musik keroncong)
  • ukulele cak, berdawai 4 (baja), urutan nadanya A, D, Fis, dan B. Jadi ketika alat musik lainnya memainkan tangga nada C, cak bermain pada tangga nada F (dikenal dengan sebutan in F);
  • gitar akustik sebagai gitar melodi, dimainkan dengan gaya kontrapuntis (anti melodi);
  • biola (menggantikan Rebab);
  • flut (mengantikan Suling Bambu);
  • selo; betot menggantikan kendang
  • kontrabas (menggantikan Gong)[2]
Penjaga irama dipegang oleh ukulele dan bas. Gitar yang kontrapuntis dan selo yang ritmis mengatur peralihan akord. Biola berfungsi sebagai penuntun melodi, sekaligus hiasan/ornamen bawah. Flut mengisi hiasan atas, yang melayang-layang mengisi ruang melodi yang kosong.
Bentuk keroncong yang dicampur dengan musik populer sekarang menggunakan organ tunggal serta synthesizer untuk mengiringi lagu keroncong (di pentas pesta organ tunggal yang serba bisa main keroncong, dangdut, rock, polka, mars).

Setelah mengalami evolusi yang panjang sejak kedatangan orang Portugis di Indonesia (1522) dan pemukiman para budak di daerah Kampung Tugu tahun 1661, dan ini merupakan masa evolusi awal musik keroncong yang panjang (1661-1880), hampir dua abad lamanya, namun belum memperlihatkan identitas keroncong yang sebenarnya dengan suara crong-crong-crong, sehingga boleh dikatakan musik keroncong belum lahir tahun 1661-1880.
Dan akhirnya musik keroncong mengalami masa evolusi pendek terakhir sejak tahun 1880 hingga kini, dengan tiga tahap perkembangan terakhir. Tonggak awal adalah pada tahun 1879, di saat penemuan ukulele di Hawai yang segera menjadi alat musik utama dalam keroncong (suara ukulele: crong-crong-crong).
Ketiga tahap tersebut adalah[3]
(a) Masa stambul (1880-1920),
(b) Masa keroncong abadi (1920-1960), dan
(c) Masa keroncong modern (1960-kini).
 
 
 
Salah satu tokoh Indonesia yang memiliki kontribusi cukup besar dalam membesarkan musik keroncong adalah bapak Gesang. Lelaki asal kota Surakarta (Solo) ini bahkan mendapatkan santunan setiap tahun dari pemerintah Jepang karena berhasil memperkenalkan musik keroncong di sana. Salah satu lagunya yang paling terkenal adalah Bengawan Solo. Lantaran pengabdiannya itulah, oleh Gesang dijuluki "Buaya Keroncong" oleh insan keroncong Indonesia, sebutan untuk pakar musik keroncong. Gesang menyebut irama keroncong pada MASA STAMBUL (1880-1920), yang berkembang di Jakarta (Tugu , Kemayoran, dan Gambir) sebagai Keroncong Cepat; sedangkan setelah ousat perkembangan pindah ke Solo (MASA KERONCONG ABADI: 1920-1960) iramanya menjadi lebih lambat.
Di sisi lain nama Anjar Any (Solo, pencipta Langgam Jawa lebih dari 2000 lagu yang meninggal tahun 2008) juga mempunyai andil dalam keroncong untuk Langgam Jawa beserta Waljinah (Solo), sedangkan R. Pirngadie (Jakarta) untuk Keroncong Beat, Manthous (Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta) untuk Campursari dan Koe Plus (Solo/Jakarta) untuk Keroncobg Rock, serta Didi Kempot (Ngawi) untuk Congdut.

TV9 Surabaya


SURABAYA, KOMPAS.com - Setelah mempersiapkan cukup lama, TV9 milik Pengurus Wilayah Nahdlatul Ulama (PWNU) Jawa Timur akhirnya diresmikan oleh Menteri Pendidikan Nasional (Mendiknas) Mohammad Nuh, Minggu malam. Peresmian TV dengan saluran (channel) 42 UHF itu ditandai dengan pemukulan beduk oleh Mendiknas yang didampingi Wagub Jatim H. Saifullah Yusuf, dan Rais Syuriah PWNU Jatim KH Miftachul Akhyar.
   
Tampak hadir pula Ketua Tanfiziah PWNU Jatim KH Mutawakkil Alallah selaku Presiden Komisaris TV9 serta sejumlah ulama, di antaranya KH Muchit Muzadi, KH Zainuddin Jazuli, dan KH Fawaid As’ad. "Saya mengucapkan selamat, karena TV9 merupakan terobosan untuk mencerdaskan anak bangsa dengan tayangan yang santun dan menyejukkan," kata Mendiknas Mohammad Nuh.

Ia berjanji akan membantu TV9 dengan iklan-iklan pendidikan serta mengajak Wagub Jatim dan pejabat lainnya untuk memberikan iklan program pemerintah provinsi dan daerah di Jatim kepada TV9. "Saya kira, kalau setiap harlah (hari lahir) NU diperingati dengan produk-produk yang cerdas seperti TV9, maka NU akan semakin maju," katanya.

Menurut mantan Menkominfo itu, TV9 merupakan pembuktian bahwa warga NU itu tidak hanya berhenti pada gagasan, karena hal yang tak kalah penting adalah apa yang perlu dirancang pascaperesmian. "Saya kira, kalau TV9 dikerjakan dengan penuh keikhlasan dan kemurnian untuk melanjutkan risalah NU, maka TV9 yang merupakan TV lokal akan memberi dampak positif secara nasional," katanya.
   
Dalam kesempatan itu, Wagub Jatim Saifullah Yusuf juga menyampaikan selamat dan terima kasih atas peresmian TV9 milik NU Jatim. "TV9 akan banyak membantu pemerintah untuk mencerdaskan masyarakat, terutama dengan memberi pemahaman tentang Islam secara utuh, karena itu Pak Gubernur Soekarwo menyampaikan terima kasih," katanya.


Catatan Blogger :
"Sebuah proses yang amat panjang bafi perjalanan NU di dunia nusantara ini dalam mendakwahkan melalui berbagai media dan alat komunikasi, saya rasa pemilihan media televisi menjadi sarana yang baik untuk berdakwah, hanya ada catatan kecil dari saya selaku blogger, biasanya seseorang akan menyukai sesuatu yang baru jika sesuatu itu memiliki nilai lebih dan juga memiliki identitas tersendiri, saya rasa NU bukanlah sosok asing bagi Bangsa Indonesia, sehingga NU sudah memilki identitas yang melekat bagi kalangan masyarakat Indonesia hanya saja nilai lebih apa yang di tawarkan TV9? karena dalam beberapa kasuss banyak TV Lokal swasta yang bangkrut karena mereka tidak memiliki nilai lebih sehingga dpat mencurui perhatian penonton / khalayak ramai di Indonesia. Mudah-mudahan warga NU tetap istiqomah mengelola TV9 sebegai sarana dakwah dan silaturahmi dan saling bahu membahu menopang TV9 sebagai milik bersama".

MARVIN GAYE - WHATS GOING ON -RARITIES EDITION 2010


Marvin Pentz Gaye, Jr. (la e final la añadió él, tal como hizo Sam Cooke) nació en Washington DC, donde su padre era un predicador, ministro de la Casa de Dios (House of God), una congregación conservadora cristiana con elementos del pentecostalismo y judaísmo ortodoxo que exigía el cumplimiento de unos códigos de conducta estrictos y no celebraba ninguna festividad. Marvin comenzó a cantar en el coro de la iglesia, un lugar en sobre el que años más tarde diría «aprendí la alegría de la música»; sin embargo, en casa, debía soportar el fundamentalismo moral y los ataques de ira de su padre. Durante aquellos años, aprendió a tocar el piano y la batería, viéndose obligado a abandonar el atletismo por la intransigencia de su padre.
Sin más salida que la música, a los 15 años formó su primer grupo, DC Tones. Tras un breve paréntesis en las fuerzas aéreas, de donde fue expulsado por indisciplina, ingresó en el grupo de doo wop The Rainbows, y posteriormente en The Marquees, grabando un sencillo apadrinado por Bo Diddley que no tuvo éxito. Poco después, se unió a The Moonglows, grupo liderado por Harvey Fuqua y, por aquél entonces, uno de los mejores grupos de doo wop. Mama Loocie (1959, Chess Records) fue el primer sencillo publicado con The Moonglows.
Tras varios trabajos y giras, Harvey Fuqua disolvió el grupo y se trasladó a Detroit en busca de mayores oportunidades, llevándose a Gaye. Allí, fundó un sello discográfico y contrajo matrimonio con Gwen Berry, que regentaba otro pequeño sello; ambos se fusionaron poco más tarde en el sello Tri Phi Records e incorporaron a su catálogo a Marvin Gaye, que se había casado con Anna Berry, hermana mayor de Gwen, en 1961. Posteriormente, Berry Gordy, hermano de Anna y Gwen y propietario del sello Tammi, luego Tamla Motown, absorbió la compañía Tri Phi.

En Motown, donde realizaría una brillante carrera, Gaye comenzó acompañando a la batería, entre otros grupos, a Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, y haciendo acompañamientos vocales y tocando el piano en grabaciones de otros artistas. En agosto de 1961, debutó como solista con The Soulful Moods Of Marvin Gaye sin demasiado éxito. Desviándose del camino de las baladas convencionales compuso con William Stevenson y George Gordy, "That Stubborn Kinda' Fellow" (1963), del que se publicó el sencillo que da título al álbum, "Hitch Hike" y "Pride and Joy", sus primeros éxitos en Motown, a los que seguiría el álbum "How Sweet It Is" (To Be Loved By You) (1964) y los sencillos "I'll Be Doggone" y "Ain't That Peculiar" (1965). En 1964 inició sus duetos con Mary Wells, la estrella femenina de la Motown, con quien grabó, ese mismo año, Together, y un par de canciones que tuvieron alguna popularidad. Posteriormente grabó con Kim Weston, "Take Two" (1967), pero sus mejores duetos fueron sin duda con Tammi Terrell, con la que consiguió recrear a los ojos del público el romance perfecto hasta el punto de que circularon insistentes rumores acerca de las relaciones entre ambos que fueron, eso sí, grandes amigos. Con ella obtuvo grandes éxitos como "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" y "Your Precious Love" en 1967 y "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing" y "You're All I Need to Get By" en 1968. La fantasía terminó bruscamente después de que el verano de 1967, Tammi Terrel se desmayara en el escenario en los brazos de Gaye por un tumor cerebral no diagnosticado que acabaría con su vida tres años más tarde; «siento que, de alguna manera, he muerto con ella» diría Gaye tiempo después.


Al año siguiente explotó en solitario las listas con "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" (1968) colocándose en el número uno de las listas de R&B y pop y logrando vender más de 4 millones de copias del sencillo; el mayor éxito de ventas de Motown en la década de los 60. Sin embargo, a partir de este momento Gaye comienza a distanciarse en el ámbito artístico de los productores de la Motown y siguiendo la tendencia que se manifiesta en la música popular de aquellos años de incorporar a las letras temáticas sociales y políticas, graba en 1971 el que a la postre será considerado su mejor álbum, "What's Going On", con elementos del jazz y la música clásica y en el que aborda la protección del medio ambiente, la corrupción política, el abuso de las drogas y la guerra de Vietnam inspirado por su hermano Frankie Gay que acababa de regresar del frente.

Calificado por algunos como el mejor álbum soul de la historia, "What's Going On" tiene sin embargo que superar la inicial oposición de Gordy que lo juzga excesivamente político y escasamente comercial; sin embargo, Gaye se niega a realizar otra grabación hasta que se grabe el sencillo, a lo que Gordy accede finalmente en enero de 1971. Una vez publicado alcanza rápidamente los puestos primero y segundo en las listas de soul y pop y ante el éxito, Gordy reconoce la victoria de Gaye y cede a sus pretensiones. El LP (long play) se graba en tan sólo 10 días en marzo y sale a la luz el 21 de mayo, consiguiendo el mismo éxito que el sencillo. La ironía es que, tras treinta años vendiéndose, el álbum que Motown no quería en un principio acaso sea la mejor expresión de aquél que soñara Gordy: «música que alcance los corazones, las almas, y las billeteras de todas las personas
En 1973 graba "Let's Get It On", un álbum impregnado de sensualidad que tiene buena acogida entre el público y el mismo año graba con Diana Ross "Marvin & Diana". Ya en solitario y al tiempo que termina su matrimonio publica "I Want You". Tras su divorcio de Anna Gordy, es condenado en 1976 por un tribunal por el impago de la pensión alimenticia, viéndose obligado a trabajar en un nuevo disco; el resultado es "Here, My Dear" un álbum tan personal que Anna Gordy considera incluso la posibilidad de demandarle por invadir su privacidad.
 

Tras diversos reveses profesionales y un nuevo fracaso matrimonial, Gaye se traslada a Hawaii y finalmente, por problemas de impuestos, recala en Europa en 1981, donde sacará a la luz "In Our Lifetime", un complicado e intimista disco que pondrá fin a su relación con Motown. Tras firmar con Columbia Records en 1982 compuso "Midnight Love" al tiempo que intentaba sobreponerse de su adicción a la cocaína. Una de sus canciones, "Sexual Healing", es una de las más famosas de Gaye. "Sexual Healing" fue escrito en el pueblo Moere (Flandes Occidental, Belgica). Allí se puede ver su esplendida casa. A pesar del resurgir de su carrera y su reencuentro con la fama, se hundió aún más en las drogas de las que intentó aislarse buscando refugio en casa de sus padres. Sin embargo, durante el tiempo que pasó allí en varias ocasiones intentó suicidarse después de mantener agrias discusiones con su padre. Finalmente, el 1 de abril de 1984, la víspera de su 45 cumpleaños, en el transcurso de una de esas discusiones su padre lo mató de un disparo, hecho que sería calificado como «homicidio justificable», con un arma que el propio Marvin le había dado cuatro meses antes. Su padre falleció en 1998 de un ataque al corazón.
En 1987, Gaye ocupó su lugar en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll. No fue éste, sin embargo, el único homenaje a su figura; en vida, en 1983, el grupo británico Spandau Ballet grabó el sencillo "True" dedicado a Gaye y al «sonido Motown», un año después de su muerte The Commodores recogía el fallecimiento de Gaye en "Night Shift" y en 1999 el mundo del R&B rendía honores al «Príncipe de Motown» en el álbum "Marvin Is 60".

ZZ TOP - FANDANGO ( 1975 )




ZZ Top,conocido por sus fans como The Little Ol' Band from Texas, es un grupo estadounidense de southern rock y hard rock formado en 1970 en Houston, Texas. Los miembros del grupo son Billy Gibbons (voz y guitarra), Dusty Hill (bajo y voz) y Frank Beard (batería). Tienen el mérito de ser uno de los pocos grupos de rock que todavía conserva sus miembros originales después de 40 años, además de haber mantenido al mismo manager y productor, Bill Ham.
Alcanzaron la cima de su éxito comercial en los 70 y los 80, pero todavía hoy continúan girando y lanzando discos. ZZ Top entró en el Rock and Roll Hall of Fame el 15 de marzo de 2004.
Gibbons y Hill también son famosos por las peculiares guitarras que utilizan, muchas de ellas codiseñadas con el maestro luthier John Bolin.
Prácticamente son tan famosos por su aspecto como por su música. Gibbons y Hill siempre son retratados llevando gafas de sol (un gesto a su canción de 1979 Cheap Sunglasses), ropa parecida (o en ocasiones idéntica), y sus larguísimas barbas. En 1984 la firma Gillette ofreció a Gibbons y a Hill un millón de dólares por afeitarse en un anuncio de televisión. Declinaron la oferta.

Fandango ( 1975 )

Cuarto disco de estudio de los espectaculares miembros de ZZ Top. Se trata de un álbum mezclado con canciones en vivo y la otra parte son canciones de estudio. Llegó al número 10 de los charts musicales en el año de 1975.

Tracks :

1-Thunderbird
2-Jailhouse Rock
3-Backdoor Medley
4-Nasty Dogs And Funky Kings
5-Blue Jean Blues
6-Balinese
7-Mexican Blackbird
8-Heard It On The X
9-Tush

Ethiopia plane crashes off Lebanon with 90 on board




BEIRUT (AFP) - – An Ethiopian airliner carrying 90 people exploded in a ball of flames and plunged into the sea off Lebanon just after takeoff in stormy weather early on Monday, officials and witnesses said.
A massive international search and rescue operation involving helicopters and ships was scrambled as President Michel Sleiman said there was no immediate suspicion foul play was involved and grim-faced officials played down hopes of any survivors.
A Lebanese security official said that by early afternoon at least 24 bodies had been pulled from the sea, including that of a child. One rescue official told AFP that some of the bodies recovered were dismembered while another said bodies were floating in the water.
The health ministry said it had set up a crisis unit in a bid to identify the victims trough DNA tests or items of jewellery found on their persons.
Debris from the Boeing 737, which was headed to the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, as well as luggage and personal belongings could be seen washing up on the shoreline south of the capital.
A defence ministry official said the plane exploded into four pieces before crashing shortly after takeoff at 2:30 am (0030 GMT) in a heavy thunderstorm.
He said it was unclear what caused the crash.
Witnesses reported seeing flames as the plane plunged into the sea.
One employee of a gas station near the site of the crash said he heard an explosion and saw "a huge ball of fire" as the plane crashed.
Another witness said: "It was like the whole sea lit up."
Transport Minister Ghazi Aridi said Ethiopian Airlines Flight 409 lost contact with the airport control tower shortly after takeoff and crashed into the Mediterranean sea 2.5 nautical miles off the coastal town of Naameh, south of the airport.
"The control tower was assisting the pilot of the plane on takeoff and suddenly lost contact for no known reason," Aridi told reporters.
The Lebanese army, navy as well as the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) and aircraft from France, Britain, Cyprus and the United States were assisting in the rescue, officials said.
Families of the passengers, some of them weeping uncontrollably, huddled at the VIP lounge of Beirut International Airport to await news of their loved ones. Related article: Traumatised families await news
Prime Minister Saad Hariri, parliament speaker Nabih Berri as well as a number of ministers and deputies were at the airport to comfort the families.
One woman sobbed and screamed "why, why?" as others fainted and had to be carried away by Red Cross volunteers.
"I know they won't find him," wailed one woman, referring to her husband who was on board the flight.
"We are working with all the power we have to try and find missing people from this tragedy," Hariri told reporters. "We are working to find the black box that will tell us what really happened on the plane."
An AFP correspondent saw eight empty airplane seats that had washed up on the shore, just south of the airport. Soldiers could also be seen on a beach dragging large metal chunks of the plane.
Sleiman said authorities had ruled out terrorism or sabotage as the cause of the crash.
"Up until now we have ruled out foul play," Sleiman told reporters.
"This is a painful tragic event. We are sparing no efforts in trying to find survivors," he added.
The Ethiopian News Agency in Addis Ababa said Ethiopian Airlines has sent a team to Beirut to investigate the crash.
Lebanon has been lashed by heavy rains and storms in the past two days that have caused flooding and damage in some parts of the country. Related article: Recent plane crashes over water
Officials listed 83 passengers and seven crew members on board the flight.
The passengers comprise 54 Lebanese, 23 Ethiopians, one French woman, one British national, one Iraqi, one Syrian, one Turkish, one unknown and seven crew members. Three of the Lebanese held due nationality -- one from Britain, one from Canada and one from Russia.
A Lebanese deputy, Yassin Jaber, said 15 of those on board hailed from the southern town of Nabatiyeh.
The French passenger was identified as Marla Sanchez Pietton, the wife of France's ambassador to Lebanon, Denis Pietton, the French embassy told AFP.
Thousands of Ethiopians are employed as domestic workers in Lebanon and Ethiopian Airlines operates a regular flight between Addis Ababa and Beirut.
Many Lebanese, especially from the south of the country, work in Africa and Addis Ababa is a transit point.
Hariri declared Monday a national day of mourning, as parliament cancelled a scheduled legislative session.
The Boeing 737-800, which entered into commercial service in 1998, is one of the latest versions of the world's most widely used short to medium-haul airliners, and is capable of carrying up to 189 passengers. Background: Ethiopian Airlines
Ethiopian Airlines, which was established in 1946 and operates an all-Boeing fleet, is considered one of Africa's best carriers and was excluded from a 2006 European Union ban on about 100 carriers, most of them African.
But in November 1996 Ethiopian Airlines Flight 961 was hijacked between Addis Ababa and Nairobi by three Ethiopians seeking political asylum. The aircraft crashed into the Indian Ocean off the Comoros when it ran out of fuel, killing 125 of the 175 people on board.
And in September 1988 one of the airline's Boeing 737s made a crash landing at Bahar Dar in Ethiopia after birds entered both engines during takeoff. Thirty one of the 105 people on board were killed.
